    I really cant believe it, but I have managed to produce a website !
    Its all about me and my interests with a wish that it might encorage other people who have a wish to attempt something different.
    Its still fresh and the paints not dry yet. but I`m getting there.
    I hope to do a daily update when there is something of interest I have done that day.
    Take a look and please let me know if I should continue or kick it into touch before I get to involved !

    Many thanks

    It's very good Robert, like the web site and you do have a lot of interests. I'd love to do wood-work if I had the time too.

    I have taken on board what Scotkat says about the black background hurting her eyes.
    So.. I have changed to a luxury purply colour and I must admit it is an improvement.
    Also updated with an item on last years Potatoes in a bin trail.

    Next item for the gardening section is growing tomatoes

    I have taken comments on board and made some major changes and have updated my site.
    Can I please ask you if you have a minute or two to check it out and pass comments?

    Thank you in anticipation

    Well done for persevering, websites are tough to produce, particularly if it is your first one! How much time have you spent on it?
